Historians have a lot to say about the exact style of brown shoes worn by most men over the last few centuries. But you probably don't need a bunch of different pairs of brown shoes: you probably just need one or two that have a few of the defining traits of brown shoes through the ages.

So these Men's Brown Shoes are perfect for you! No, they don't have hobnails or chopines or little jinglebells on the toes. But they're made out of leathery-looking faux suede, with a stylish-looking flap that ties to the side of the shoe to secure it. You don't need a master's degree to know that the best brown shoes have neat features like that! And no offense, but you'd have to be kind of an egghead to think that the extra traction of modern slip-resistant soles isn't a fine upgrade to boot!
